Connecticut Power and Energy Society

Scale Microgrids has secured financing for a 9.6-megawatt combined heat and power (CHP) #fuelcell project in Bridgeport, Connecticut. The project, paired with a thermal loop, will be funded by Investec, MUFG, and Foss & Company -- The project, which is paired with a thermal loop, was acquired pre-construction from NuPower, an Easton, CT-based developer and investor in sustainable energy projects. Investec and MUFG will provide debt financing and Foss & Co will provide tax equity for the project, which Scale will finance as well as build, own, and operate over its lifetime. HyAxiom, Inc., Connecticut’s largest fuel cell manufacturer, will fabricate, install, and operate the fuel cells for the project. These fuel cells will convert natural gas into hydrogen through an electrochemical process, generating combustion-free electricity as well as waste heat which will be captured for use in a 1.6 mile-long thermal loop in Bridgeport’s South end.

Equinor is investing broadly in the future US energy system, including in critical minerals. Hear Allison "Allie" Kennedy Thurmond, Ph.D., vice president of US lithium, talk about how AI and lithium have shaped the conversation at #CERAWeek in Houston.?

Three years ago, we committed ourselves to building our U.S. offshore wind projects with American union labor, signing a first-of-its-kind National Offshore Wind Agreement with North America’s Building Trades Union. Today, Orsted is proud to announce that our U.S. offshore wind energy projects have generated approximately 3 million work hours for American union workers and counting, while creating more than 1,400 direct union jobs. These jobs come with family-sustaining wages that support the middle class and expand the American energy workforce. And there’s more to come. Another 500 union workers are expected to start offshore work this year at our largest U.S. project to date, the 924 MW Sunrise Wind, which will power hundreds of thousands of homes and businesses in New York. We’re proud of our partnership with American unions as we expand domestic energy production and invest in core U.S. industries like shipbuilding, ports, and manufacturing. It’s all part of our USD 20 billion investment in U.S. energy projects through 2030. Read more here: https://lnkd.in/gBHEt7ma

Moving forward, piece by piece. ?? A transition piece is an essential component of offshore wind turbines. These pieces connect the monopile foundation—the component in the ocean—to the tower that you see above water. Each piece features a ladder and platform that allows offshore wind technicians to access the turbine for regular inspections. Climbing great heights is just one way we strive to deliver reliable and increasingly clean energy. Watch to see how we lift, secure, and transport nearly 540-ton transition pieces from the Port of Virginia to the CVOW lease area.

In response to increasing demand in PJM Interconnection, AlphaGen proposes to add 450 MW of dispatchable and highly reliable #electric generation to its existing fleet in #NewJersey, #Ohio, and #Maryland https://lnkd.in/g9fEngVP

We hosted our Go Green Games last week in Chicago and Philadelphia, to promote reliable, clean, emissions-free energy to fans via interactive learning games and sustainability-themed prizes. We are proud to be the Official Clean Energy Provider of the United Center, Chicago Blackhawks, Chicago Bulls, Philadelphia Flyers and the Wells Fargo Center.
